wreck dives
Baron Gautsch	One of the best dives in the Adriatic. The Baron Gautsch, an Austrian ferry, was built in 1908. Pressed into the service of the Austro-Hungarian Navy during WWI, Baron Gautsch shuttled reinforcements from and refugees to its home port in Trieste. On August 13, 1914 the ship ran into a field of friendly mines and sank with great loss of life. The upper deck of Baron Gautsch lies at 28 meters, the keel in the pebbly seabed at about 40 meters. Abundant marine life including algae, sponges, corals and lots of fish schools. This is an unforgettable dive.
Submarine Medusa	An Italian sub built in 1929, Medusa was considered obsolete in 1942. While performing suface maneuvers not far from its home port in Pula on January 30, 1942 the Medusa was spotted and torpedoed by the British submarine HMS Thorn. According to reports, HMS Thorn fired 4 torpedoes from a distance of 1000 meters. Medusa was able to maneuver out of the path of 3 of the missiles but the fourth scored a dead hit amidships. Medusa sits on the seabed at 41 meters and rises to 33 meters from the surface. It's a spectacular dive.
Varese	An Italian merchant steamship. On January 18, 1915, while steaming toward Pula with the intention of riding out a storm in port, Varese hit a mine and sank. The wreck sits between 33 and 42 meters.
Flamingo	A WW1 Austro-Hungarian Navy torpedo boat. While on patrol on August 23, 1914 it struck one of its own mines. Flamingo sits at 40 to 45 meters so it's a fairly deep dive but well worth the effort. The visibility at this site is usually great.
Rossarol	An Italian warship built in 1913. One of Italy's biggest naval losses during WWI, Cessare Rossarol sank in November 1918 - after the armistice. The RossaroI was trying to navigate among the more than 1400 mines laid during the war by the Austro-Hungarian navy to protect the port at Pula. Despite expert piloting, it hit a mine and the resulting explosion broke the ship in half. The two halves lie about 300 meters from each other. You can see artillery shells in the bow section. Rossarol sits at 44 to 55 meters so it's an advanced dive.
	The Adriatic abounds with marine life. Because of the protective habitat shipwrecks provide, many species choose to make their homes in and around them. Cuttlefish, blue sharks, Adriatic lobster and many more sea dwellers stay at home on the wrecks and wait for visitors.
	This is just a sample of the scores of wreck dives accessible from Pula. Trips run daily. Plan to spend several days seeing the incredible wrecks of the northern Adriatic. It will be the dive holiday of a lifetime.
